Harry Potter and the Animagi Transformation
Chapter 1: The best summer
Harry Potter was not your average boy. For one he was a wizard. Unlike others he hated summer vacation but loved school. He goes to Hogwarts School of witchcraft and Wizardry with his two best friends: Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. It was a normal day for the Dursleys who lived on No. 4 Privit Drive and were Harry's only living relatives. Harry's pet owl had just come back with three letters tied to her leg. One was from Harry's godfather, Sirius who was an innocent man framed as a criminal. The other two were from Hermione and Ron.
Sirius' read:
'Dear Harry,
Please buy these extra things at Diagon Alley. They are the vital ingredients that are needed for a potion.
5 Unicorn Horns and strands of hair
10 phoenix feathers, red
½ pound of crushed fangs from snakes and dragons each
20 dragon scales
5 pinches of boomslang powder
1 golden feather
1 silver goblet
1 collapsible cauldron
1 copy of 'Potions, Curses, Charms, and Spells of the Past, Present, and Future'
1 magical compact, lightweight box with space for 20 things, water- and potion-proof in the form of a book
I will get the rest. Hope you aren't having any trouble with the muggles.
Yours, Snuffles.'
Harry took the other two notes out. The second was from Ron. It read:
'Dear Harry,
Guess what! We have a new house. Dad told us just yesterday. Apparently the Malfoys were finally caught for having dark arts stuff in the secret chamber in their drawing room that we found out about during the Polyjuice Potion. Take the Floo Powder and say 'the Weasley's new home' and it'll take you directly to us. Bloody brilliant huh?
Ron.
P.S. We have a surprise for you tomorrow. I will give my present there.'
Harry felt like screaming out with joy. He'd finally be leaving the Dursleys for the rest of the summer. He took the final letter from Hedwig. The envelope held three letters. It was from Hermione, but it also contained letters from Hagrid and Professor McGonagall.
The one from Hagrid wished him a Happy Birthday and also said that he would get his present at Hogwarts. Harry smiled to himself. Hagrid was one of his best friends. He was the grounds keeper at Hogwarts and now taught Care of Magical Creatures. Her was known to bring very dangerous beast and call them 'harmless'. Hagrid was also a half-giant. That was discovered last year at the Yule Ball when Rita Skeeter, a reporter from the Daily Prophet who was also an unregistered animagi, found out and wrote about it in the newspaper.
For the hundredth time that summer, he cursed Rita Skeeter and the whole of the Daily Prophet for ruining his and his best friends' lives. Thankfully, Hermione caught Rita Skeeter and made sure that she would not write any more lies after she got out from the glass jar in which Hermione kept her.
He looked at the other two letters in the envelope. Hermione said that she was fine and wished him a Happy Birthday. She also said that she had just come back from Bulgaria and she was very happy at the things that she had seen there. Her present was a subscription to a Quidditch newsletter that told of the daily happenings in Quidditch. It was charmed so that it would change every day to bring the latest news.
"Wow Hermione", Harry whispered excitedly. She knew that he loved Quidditch and had bought him the one thing that he really missed during the summer.
The last letter from the Deputy Headmistress just had a list of the things that he would to bring to Hogwarts for the next year.

The next morning, he packed his things and got his trunk out of the cupboard. He tried to inform the Dursleys that he was leaving, but they were too scared to listen.
After the Ton Tongue incident, the Dursleys had been walking on eggshells around him and decided finally to ignore what the 'freak boy' was doing.
He took the envelope labeled floo powder and threw it in the fire. The fire roared and turned green. Aunt Petunia gasped in the background. He didn't even bother saying goodbye to them.
He roared, "The Weasley's new house".
He was turned round and round and was finally thrown flat on his face onto the shiny, smooth floor. He had used his seeker reflexes and had thrown his arms ahead of him so that he wouldn't have broken his glasses. When he got up, he gasped. Standing in front of him was a beautiful home.
